Arise with Christ December 02 of Arise with Christ

A shepherd's song

My ears heard the sweet sound of angels singing, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men of good will."

I went and my eyes did see a baby lying in a manger, the Savior of all mankind, who is Christ the Lord.
My heart leaped with joy when I beheld the babe's face by the flickering lamp's light in the stillness of the star studded night.

This is He who will save all faithful men's souls and shall reign King of Kings and Lord of Lords forever and ever was my thought.
How wonderful, how marvelous it is to be able to be among the first to see the face of our Savior.
I did fall in my knees with the other shepherds and there we did glorify and praise God for all we heard and seen. Hallelujah!
